but what i am saying is we already have them installed on the engines it dont bother me if they are there. there is also a mic with them. and it is like anything else while they are working it is recording time and date. if you tamper with it to disconnect it it logs this also either by stopping on date and time.( which all the company does then is go back and see where it was and who was on it.) and at this point its called tampering with a safty device and you get time off. its not hard to figure out if it is tampering or just failure. and you can see everything from when the gates come down to when yo hit the person.

i was not challenging whether they were in use.. i wrote in general terms about engine cameras for any r.r. and a worst-case scenario about crews' attitudes towards being taped on-the-job..

if you accept the need for taping crew operations, that's terrific.. it could reveal unsafe crew practices, unsafe mgmt. directives and who to blame for crossing accidents..

the only question left is, would the r.rs. spend money for engine cameras at both ends?
